  • Introduction - Start Here7:33

    Hello! And welcome to this course on how to finally finish your book!

    In this Introduction Module, I begin by introducing myself and telling you a little about my writing experience.

    We then discuss what you can expect from this course and what I expect from you.

    Let me ask you a question: What is it that is holding you back from achieving your goal of finishing your book? How will you feel when your book is finally finished? Please write a note in the question box.

    Then we look at what you will be learning in this course and how you can finally finish your book - once and for all!

  • Update March 1, 20153:13

    March 1, 2015: Here is an important update to this course. Please watch - it's only 3 minutes. Are you willing to accept my challenge?

  • Why Are You Writing a Book?3:46

    The first thing I always ask my students is "Why are you writing a book?" You have to know your Purpose because it is going to determine how you write your book. This first step is very crucial.

  • What Do You Want?2:34

    Next, we look at what you want. Most of us never spend any time at all thinking about what we want. So how can we go after what we want if we don't know what it is? It's like trying to drive from LA to New York without a road map.

  • What Will Your Book Do For You?1:56

    It's important to realize that your finished book is simply a tool. You can use this book-tool in any way you want. You can use it to make money, to build credibility, to attract more clients, to lead your readers to your next book in a series, and much more.

    In this module, we look at what your book will do for you personally.

Requirements

  • You will need an unfinished project that you want to complete. You can complete it on paper but a Word Processing program is more efficient.

Description

     UPDATED - Spring 2023

  809 Students have enrolled! 


Millions of people have started writing a book and never finished it. This can cause stress, anxiety and feelings of frustration. Not to mention lost revenue!  All of the hundreds of hours that you have put into your book are wasted if your book is never finished. 

This course will give you the tools you need to finally finish your book once and for all. There is also a module on how to start earning revenue with your book once it's finished. 

Taught by a professional book publisher and owner of Prominence Publishing, Suzanne Doyle-Ingram takes you through a series of modules where you examine what is stopping you from finishing your book and, more importantly, what to do about it. 

The course consists of a series of short video lessons that range from a few minutes to a maximum of 18 minutes. Let's face it, one of the main reasons why most people struggle to finish their book is because they don't have time to write. So this course is not meant to take you a month to get through. You could finish this course in a week with a solid plan to finish your book shortly thereafter. 

Are you satisfied with a half finished book sitting around? If not, it's time to get cracking and finish your book! 

In this course, you will learn: 

  • The importance of understanding why you are writing your book

  • What you want your book to DO for you

  • How to stop sabotaging yourself

  • How your brain makes you feel insecure (and what to do about it)

  • Why you need an outline (and exactly how to write one)

  • How to find time to write (Hint: you have more time than you think!)

  • What to do about editing and proofreading

  • How to make goals and deadlines work for you

  • How to finally finish your book

  • And how to make your book work for you!

          So, what are you waiting for? Let's get started! 

Who this course is for:

  • This course is for fiction and non fiction writers who need help finishing a book.
  • This course could also be helpful for anyone struggling to complete a project.
